AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

A decision of Acting Secretary Null
drow has just been published in response
to a letter from Land Commissioner
Sparks on the subject of desert entries
within the railroad limit, which was
treated in a circular issued last June. Mr..
Muldrow decides that where the initial
entry OF double minimum land was made
prior to the PRONUNCIATION Of the circular
Chat is June 20 lasr) the entryman
should be required to pay but 81 rs per
acre for the land as entered. In render
ing the deci ion he very sensibly remarks:
The making of an entry under the
desert land law is n contract between the
entryman AMI the United States, the
entryman agreeing to reclaim the tract
entered from its desert condition and to
pay for the same at the government price.
and the United States agreeing to give
him a patent for said land after the per
Torrance of the conditions in
the contract. As earnest money the
entr, man paws one one fifth of the
pri Q of the land at the date of making
his original entry, The r-maind, T is to
he paid when the contra t is performed
and s tisf,ctory pr OF of such perform
ance lurni-hed. This contra t, like all
Others, is be const ued and enforced ac-
cordint t. the sense in which the parties
mutually under TODD it at tune it W S
made, and efe t st, be given to it ac-
corlin to tae law at tho time it was
made"
This .ettles a que.tion which is very
imp ,rtant to many pc pls in Wyoming
who had N de s1,h d TT entries previ-
GUS t. l.st Jure.

WHILE comparatively few except the
lawyers will fully appreciate the %niceties
of the legal distinctions drawn by Chief
Justice Waite in the anarchist cases, the
mind Of every citizen will Grapple the
eliminating point OF the decision, viz:
That the writ of error is denied Unless
executive clemeucy should intervene,
which is MT even barely possible, the
seven central figures of the Haymsrket
riot will take their last view OF this fair
world of ours one week from tomorrow.
There may perhaps be some sentiment
wasted upon these people. but the rule OF
medicine that desperate diseases require
desperate remedies, will apply with extra
ordinary force in these cases. AS a warn
ing and example the death of these seven
anarchists will accomplish Infinitely more
good than their long lives, dedicated to
virtue and patriotism, could possibly do.

WHEN "oLE MARsTER" DIES.
Young bIarster" In Possession of His
Inheritance.

young Nlarster' In Possession of HIS
Inheritance.
Then some day ''ole marster'' dies,
and the negroes, one by one, young and
old, file into the darkened parlor to take
q last look at his quiet face. He had his
furious temper. "ole marster'' had, and
his sins-which God forgive! Today he
will be buried, and tomorrow young
marster" will inherit his saddle horse
and ride out into the fields.
Thus he has come into possession of
his negroes. Among them are a few
whose working days are over. These are
to be kindly cared for, decently buried.
Next are the active laborers, and, last,
the generation of children. He knows
them all by name, capacity, and DISPOSE
ton: is bound to them by lifelong ascot
atoms; hears their communications and
complaints. When he goes to town, he
is charged with commissions, makes pur-
chases with their own money. Contin-
uing the course of his father, he sets
about doing for them what is best under
the circumstances-making them p
BILE, contented workmen. There shall be
special training for special aptitude. One
shall be made a blacksmith, a second q
carpenter. a third a cobbler of shoes. In
all the general industries of the farm,
educa on shall not be lacking. 1t is
claimed that a Kentucky negro invented
the hemp brake. AS a result of this
effective management, the southern
planter, looking northward, will pay him
a handsome premium for the blue grass
slave. He will awe no white overseer.
He does not like the type of man. Be-
sides, one is not needed. Uncle Tom
served his father in this capacity; let
him be. O.
Suppose, now, that among his negroes
he finds a bad one. What shall he do
with him? Keep him? Keeping him
makes him worse, and moreover he cor
rupts the others. Set him free? That is
to put a reward upon evil. Sell him to
his neighbors? They don't want him.
If they did, he wouldn't sell him to them.
He sells him into tho south. This is a
statement, not an apology. Here, for a
moment, one touches the terrible supject
of the internal slave trade. Negroes were
sold from Kentucky into the southern
market because, as has just been said,
they were bad, or by reason of the law of
with Mrs. Stoves Uncle Tom, under
constraint of debt. OF course, in many
cases, they were sold wantonly and
cruelty; but these, however many, were
not enough to make the internal slave
trade more than an incidental and subor-
dinate feature Of the system. The be-
lief nat negroes in Kentucky were regu-
larly bred and reared for the southern
market is a mistaken one.-James Lane
Allen in The Century.

To a resident Of the home OF the COW
boy, and a locality adjacent to the haunt
OF the barberous Sioux, it is especially
gratifying to observe thaT upon the close
OF the Wild West show in London the
local press ceased discussing the advisa-
bility of dispatching a $l0,0 600, 900 squad
ron to protect a SO island from the man
ipulatiOns of a black sachem clad in a
-four sack and armed with an elm club
and four wives, long enough to commend
the conduct of the cowboys and Indians
during the season.
Now if the noble red men had been
provided with a few gallons of 'alf and
'alf by hilariously inclined Britishers, the
report might have been different. In
that case Red Shirt might have elevated

been offered, would doubtless have led the
